Imagery, in literature, is the word we use for the general discussion of images in a work, part of a work, or across multiple works. All writers employ imagery to cause an to idea live, move, and have its being in your mind.  Each image arrives with a host of denotations and connotations that fill the idea with color, emotion, interest, and nuance.  Let's consider some poems together.
